a medieval bestiary

I posted my sketch of the Wolpertinger earlier and have now done a few more. I'm going on to make them in to linocuts, a technique similar to the woodcutting these original bestiaries would have used. First time with a new techniques, so it's pretty exciting learning new things!
Enfield

Leucrota

Peryton

Catoblepas
